No rolling outages for Xcel customers

February 2, 2011

Xcel customers will not be included in rotating power outages throughout the “Texas Grid,” according to a press release.

Power users connected to the Texas Grid, or Electric Reliability Council of Texas, are expected to experience rotating outages due to lack of electricity generation, a press release from Xcel Energy said.

However, Xcel customers are not connected to that grid and Xcel Energy’s power generation is running smoothly, the release said.
